The Bruce Roberts 43 represents one of the most prolific bluewater cruising designs in the history of amateur and semiprofessional yacht building. First drawn in 1969 by Australian designer Bruce RobertsGoodson, the design was conceived to provide a rugged, oceancapable platform that could be constructed using a variety of methods and materials. According to the Bruce Roberts Official Site, more than 2,000 examples are estimated to be in service globally, making it a ubiquitous sight in cruising hubs from the Caribbean to the South Pacific. The 43 is not a single uniform model but a family of designs; the two primary iterations are the "Mauritius 43," which features a center cockpit with a long coach house, and the "Norfolk 43," a flushdeck version of the same hull. Because these boats were frequently sold as plans or kits, the finished products range from professionally built masterpieces to amateur projects of varying quality.
